Sad news today--R, one of the coaches in the RSB program, is moving on... The spa is not growing quickly enough--so they can't hold on to people who would normally be on the payroll. It gets involved with benefits--for people who are not working full time.

The owner, C, is stepping in and taking over all of the classes--which is going to put her in a tough spot. She will have classes from about 4am--to sometime in the evening on certain days.

R was the best coach on the RSB team--she had a unique mix of humor and motivational skills that were great for her classes. She'll be well with whatever she ends up doing--I'm more concerned about C and how she's going to keep it together and growing.

I went to RSB this morning--small class but a good workout. Coach was T--the woman who has been diagnosed with PD. She torqued her ankle moving one of the punching dummies--she is scheduled to do a 50-mile bike ride tomorrow. Her ankle was blowing up quickly--she was going to a cryo-facility for a treatment which should help with the ankle.

Cryo treatments are a way to use cold to moderate a variety of injuries--used by professional athletes.

The grandson has been ill and indisposed for several days now--he seems to have stopped hurling whatever he manages to get down but he's still fussy and cranky. It's terrible to not be able to find out what's bothering him--it becomes a trial and error process that is not all that satisfying (for everyone).
